Militants under the aegis of 21st Century Youths of Niger Delta has given President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, a list of demands for a peaceful 2019 elections in the South-South region.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

They have asked that President Buhari allows the Permanent Voter\u2019s Cards, PVCs, not gun to count in next month\u2019s election in the oil region.<\/p>\n

The group also asked the President to be wary of his alleged impending plot to take into custody and replace the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, Walter Onnoghen.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

According to them, if these conditions are not met, the consequences will be very terrible for the nation to stomach.<\/p>\n

Leader of the group, self-styled \u201cGeneral\u201d Izon Ebi, in a statement issued to journalists yesterday, warned that militants would not only \u201cstop the flow of oil but cut all the pipes beyond repair if the conditions were breached.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe, therefore, want to summarise that the people of the Niger Delta want a peaceful election where their voter\u2019s cards will speak for them, not guns.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

\u201cWe conclude by sounding it loud that the CJN cannot be unlawfully removed from office and no amount of militarisation or intimidation will cow the Niger Delta people into submission and allow injustice to be meted out on our distinguished leaders and personalities anymore.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current alarm raised by the Coalition of United Political Parties CUPP of an impending plot to arrest the CJN and replace him with a northerner is a very serious matter that the consequences will be so grievous for the Nigerian nation to bear.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 21st Century Youths of the Niger Delta and Agitators with Conscience cannot comprehend the philosophy that makes us inferior and second- class citizens in the abundance of our God-given resources in the Niger Delta, which sustain the Nigerian nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no amount of intimidation that will force the Niger Delta people to join or support the APC for sins to be forgiven. Government cannot force us to support it when it does not take responsibility for its actions.\u201d<\/p>\n
